Scythe Volta and Rowan fanart from a little bit ago that I forgot to post. I love arc of a scythe so, so much and I highly recommend reading it. I'm not even an avid reader, yet I've enjoyed these books to no end

I’ve been wondering something for so long but what happens to the autistic people in scythe? Like would technology have cured them or would technology advance so they don’t struggle? ( no clue how that would work seems impossible) I’m just so curious and it’s been on my brain for ages.

Volta: Go and ask Goddard for $10 or else I'll punch you in the head and maybe add a bit of cyber-bullying

Rowan: I'm on an overdraft with Goddard right now how about $5 and you drop the cyber-bullying

Volta: How about $7.50 and I don't add a noogie in as well

Rowan: Will you take dollar bills and quarters?

Goddard: Alessandro, just ask me for $10 why are you dragging him into this

Volta: Because he lets me

Rowan: I have an option?

Volta: You're getting a black eye

I don't know if someone has already asked you but, what is your favorite scene in the trilogy?

it’s super hard to pick just one scene so i’ll just name a few

1. the scene where curie tells citra about her relationship with faraday. i LOVE this scene. im obsessed w curaday so i think i just think it’s rlly cute.

2. the first conclave scene. i like this one in particular just because it’s rlly interesting to see how conclaves operate and how other scythes interact with one another.

3. literally any scene w faraday in the toll. “the toll” era faraday broke my heart omg i felt so bad for him. seeing him so heartbroken was awful :/

4. the coffee shop scene with citra, faraday, curie, and munira. i love this scene bc i love seeing curie and faraday interact (i’m obsessed w curaday).

*Spoilers for The Toll by Neal Shusterman*

so i don’t know if this is intentional or not, but something i realised in my last reread was that for the majority of female characters, their ending consists of taking back their agency, having their own narratives.

i.e. :

scythe rand - kills goddard, becomes more than a footnote in his story

astrid - sister astrid becomes mother astrid; no longer serving the toll, off to build her own community

munira - "no *i’ll* make sure"

citra is helpless and a bit dead of course, but it's a good contrast to how much drive and agency she has in the rest of the series. she's spent the entire time saving other people, now she's being saved (ish).

the scene of rowan standing next to her dead body on the ship is also so important bc he's always been willing to sacrifice himself but in that moment he realises that she wouldn't want that, he needs to learn how to not sacrifice and instead focus that energy into something else (being captain of the ship, in cirrus’ opinion).

rowan doesn't know how to be powerful and citra doesn't know how to be helpless so this shows that leaving earth and the scythedom behind is giving them character growth because finally, they are freed from the roles they’ve played since the start of book 1- rowan the damned, citra the saviour.

again, i don’t know if this is intentional but it feels like a subversion/reversal of traditional gender roles (think “damsel in distress”). this is something that other ya dystopian novels have also done (i.e. the hunger games by suzanne collins; katniss is more traditionally “masculine” and peeta is more traditionally “feminine”), so it may be something of the trope? not that scythe is a dystopian novel but you get what i mean.

this post was inspired by a conversation with the amazing @thetonethetollandthethunder

Was debating posting this because they’re part of a bigger collection of my Scythe OCs and they’re kind of the weirdo, but cringe culture is dead so say hi to Scythe Stauber guys
